This is an adaptive platform-basket trial that aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of multiple novel agents and combination therapies in patients with NF2-related schwannomatosis (NF2-SWN). The study employs a basket design to assess treatment responses across four tumor types commonly associated with NF2-SWN: vestibular schwannomas, non-vestibular schwannomas, meningiomas, and ependymomas. A shared natural history observational cohort, receiving routine clinical follow-up without investigational treatment, serves as a common control for all substudies. The adaptive platform enables the dynamic addition or closure of substudies based on interim analyses, thereby optimizing trial efficiency. Eligible patients who meet the master protocol criteria and satisfy substudy-specific safety requirements will be assigned to receive the corresponding intervention. Currently open substudies include: * Substudy A: Selumetinib * Substudy B: Luvometinib plus Serplulimab
This is an investigator-initiated, prospective, multicenter, adaptive platform-basket clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of multiple therapies in patients with NF2-related schwannomatosis (NF2-SWN). The study includes four tumor baskets: vestibular schwannoma, meningioma, non-vestibular schwannoma, and ependymoma. MASTER STUDY All patients with a confirmed diagnosis of NF2-SWN who provide written informed consent will be enrolled in the master study and enter the natural history observational cohort. Patients who meet eligibility criteria for one or more active substudies may be assigned to a corresponding treatment arm. When multiple treatment arms are open, allocation will follow a predefined randomization scheme. When only one treatment arm is available, eligible patients may be enrolled directly into that substudy. Patients not eligible for any active intervention will remain in the master study cohort for standardized follow-up. Patients who experience progression of the target tumor during substudy treatment may be considered for enrollment into another active treatment arm if eligibility criteria are met. Patients who are not eligible for any active substudy will return to the master study observational cohort. Data collected during follow-up may serve as shared control data across the platform. Patients in the observational cohort will undergo standardized follow-up assessments every 12 months until study completion or voluntary withdrawal. Patients receiving treatment within a substudy will undergo efficacy and safety assessments approximately every 3 months according to the corresponding substudy protocol. The master study plans to enroll at least 200 patients with NF2-SWN, with enrollment continuing over time as eligible patients are identified across participating centers. SUBSTUDY 1: Selumetinib * Selumetinib is a selective MEK1/2 inhibitor approved for the treatment of NF1-associated plexiform neurofibromas. It inhibits tumor growth through blockade of the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK signaling pathway. * This substudy plans to enroll 20 patients, prioritizing those with vestibular schwannoma as the target tumor. Detailed eligibility criteria are provided in the substudy protocol. SUBSTUDY 2: Luvometinib + Serplulimab * Luvometinib is a selective oral MEK1/2 inhibitor. Serplulimab is a humanized anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody that blocks PD-1 signaling and restores T-cell-mediated antitumor immune activity by preventing interaction with PD-L1 and PD-L2. * This substudy plans to enroll approximately 30 adult patients, prioritizing those with vestibular schwannoma or meningioma as the target tumor. Detailed inclusion and exclusion criteria are described in the substudy protocol. Each substudy protocol will be incorporated into the master protocol as an appendix. Addition of new substudies requires review and approval by the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB). Efficacy will be evaluated using tumor-specific endpoints. For vestibular schwannoma, the primary endpoint is Hearing Response Rate (HRR). For meningioma, non-vestibular schwannoma, and ependymoma, the primary endpoint is radiographic Objective Response Rate (ORR). All efficacy endpoints will undergo blinded central review by an Independent Review Committee (IRC). The platform is expected to remain active for 5-10 years, or until all active substudies are completed and no additional treatment arms are planned.

Tumor-Type-Specific Response Rate in NF2-SWN Tumors
Vestibular schwannoma: HRR is defined as WRS improvement exceeding the 95% critical difference from baseline; if baseline WRS is \<20%, HRR is defined as a PTA decrease of at least 10 dB. Meningioma or non-vestibular schwannoma: ORR is defined as at least a 20% reduction in target tumor volume from baseline. Ependymoma: ORR is defined as at least a 30% reduction in maximum diameter from baseline according to RECIST v1.1.
Time frame: 12 months
Incidence of Adverse Events in Interventional Substudies
Percentage of participants receiving active treatment who experience at least one adverse event. Adverse events will be coded and graded according to NCI CTCAE v5.0.
Time frame: From first dose through 30 days after last dose (or as specified by individual substudy protocols)
Maximum Severity Grade of Adverse Events in Interventional Substudies
Maximum NCI CTCAE v5.0 grade of adverse events experienced by each participant during the reporting period.
Time frame: 12 months
Incidence of Serious Adverse Events in Interventional Substudies
Percentage of participants receiving active treatment who experience at least one serious adverse event.
Time frame: From first dose through 30 days after last dose.
Incidence of Dose Modifications Due to Adverse Events
Percentage of participants receiving active treatment who require at least one dose modification due to an adverse event.
Time frame: From first dose through 30 days after last dose.
Incidence of Treatment Interruptions Due to Adverse Events
Percentage of participants receiving active treatment who require at least one treatment interruption due to an adverse event.
Time frame: From first dose through 30 days after last dose.
Incidence of Treatment Discontinuations Due to Adverse Events
Percentage of participants receiving active treatment who discontinue treatment due to an adverse event.
Time frame: From first dose through 30 days after last dose.
